This is an interesting project. I'll give it a try. Are you using it in any production projects?

Beware the creator of this language doesn't want your contributions. He'll just take some of the code you wrote and pass it off as his own so no one else gets their name on the project.

What a great accomplishment! How did you manage to complete a JIT language in 2 months!?

What is the motivation and use case in coding agents era for this project?
Dont get me wrong, this question echoes in my head for some time now. Especially with supply chain attacks and open source libraries being entirely written by AI, whats my motivation to use open source libs? Previously it was time-saving, now this incentive vanish since its not me spending more time (but agent)

The author should call out size of binaries (compiled and generated), the interpreter as well since that's teh selling point. if it's tiny from memory requiremetns , shoudl also call out the same, potentially benchmarking against similar (luajit?).

What's the use-case here? Where and why would one use Tiny instead of just using Go (or something else like Python)?

this is interesting, i'm wondering if it can beat just installing go though.
I think it'd be interesting to build a adhoc config mgmt system w/ this and use it as a high level scripting language.
